Answer:

It is true, selective breeding is a type of genetic engineering

Explanation:

In artificial selection, scientists breed only individuals that have desirable traits. Through selective breeding, scientists are able to change the traits in the population. Evolution has occurred.

const2013 [10]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{47.4 g}}$

Explanation:

We are given the mass of two reactants, so this is a limiting reactant problem.

We know that we will need mases, moles, and molar masses, so, let's assemble all the data in one place, with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.

M_r: 17.03 32.00 18.02

4NH₃ + 5O₂ ⟶ 4NO + 6H₂O

m/g: 70.1 70.1

Step 1. Calculate the moles of each reactant

$\text{Moles of CO } = \text{70.1 g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{\text{17.03 g}} = \text{4.116 mol}\\\\\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{70.1 g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{\text{32.00 g}} = \text{2.191 mol}$

Step 2. Identify the limiting reactant

Calculate the moles of H₂O we can obtain from each reactant.

From NH₃:

The molar ratio of H₂O:NH₃ is 6:4.

$\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{4.116 mol NH$_{3}$} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol H$_{2}$O}}{\text{4 mol NH$_{3}$}} = \text{6.174 mol H$_{2}$O}$

From O₂:

The molar ratio of H₂O:O₂ is 6:5.

$\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{2.191 mol O$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol H$_{2}$O}}{\text{5 mol O$_{2}$}} = \text{2.629 mol H$_{2}$O}$

O₂ is the limiting reactant because it gives the smaller amount of H₂O.

Step 3. Calculate the theoretical yield.

$\text{Theor. yield } = \text{2.629 mol H$_{2}$O}\times \dfrac{\text{18.02 g H$_{2}$O}}{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$O}} = \textbf{47.4 g H$_{2}$O}\\\\\text{The maximum yield of H$_{2}$O is }\boxed{\textbf{47.4 g}}$

An electrochemical cell has the following standard cell notation: Al(s) | Al3+(aq) || Mg2+(aq) | Mg(s)

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

a. Al(s) ⇄ Al⁺³(aq) + 3e⁻ (oxidation)

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ Mg(s) (reduction)

b. ΔE° = + 0.715 V

c. It's an electrolytic cell, because it's a nonspontaneous reaction.

d. 2Al(s) + 3Mg²⁺(aq) ⇄ 2Al⁺³(aq) + 3Mg(s)

Explanation:

a. By the notation given, first is represented the oxidation reaction and then the reduction reaction, so they are:

Al(s) ⇄ Al⁺³(aq) + 3e⁻ (oxidation)

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ Mg(s) (reduction)

b. The standard potential of the cell (ΔE°) is the reduction potential of the oxidation less the reduction potential of the reduction. The reduction potentials are:

Al(s) = -1.66 V

Mg(s) = -2.375 V

ΔE° = -1.66 - (-2.375)

ΔE° = + 0.715 V

c. It's an electrolytic cell.

A galvanic cell is spontaneous, so the cathode (reduction) has a higher E° than the cathode (oxidation). In this case, the oxidation reaction has a higher E°, so the reaction is nonspontaneous and it's necessary an external force to it happen, so it's an electrolytic cell.

d. 2Al(s) + 3Mg²⁺(aq) ⇄ 2Al⁺³(aq) + 3Mg(s)

The number of electrons must be the same, so the oxidation reaction is multiplied by 2, and the reduction reaction by 3.

in an experiment 3.5g of element A reacted with 4.0g of element G to form a compound Calculate the empirical formula for this co

kolezko [41]

Additional information

Relative atomic mass(Ar) : A=7, G=16

The empirical formula : A₂G

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

3.5g of element A

4.0g of element G

Required

the empirical formula for this compound

Solution

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.

The empirical formula also shows the simplest mole ratio of the constituent elements of the compound

mol of element A :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{Ar}\\\\mol=\dfrac{3.5}{7}=0.5$

mol of element G :

$\tt mol=\dfrac{4}{16}=0.25$

mol ratio A : G = 0.5 : 0.25 = 2 : 1

1. The s orbitals are not symmetrical in shape.<br> a. TRUE<br> O. FALSE

ira [324]

The s orbitals are not symmetrical in shape is a FALSE statement.

An s orbital is so symmetric, more specifically spherically symmetric that it looks the same from all directions.

The atomic orbitals in the atoms of elements differ in shape.

In essence, the electrons they describe have varying probability distributions around the nucleus. The spherical symmetry of s orbitals is evident in the fact that all orbitals of a given shell in the hydrogen atom have the same energy.

All s orbitals are spherically symmetrical. Put simply, an electron that occupies an s orbital can be found with the same probability at any orientation (at a distance) from the nucleus.

The s orbitals are therefore represented by a spherical boundary surface which is a surface which captures a high proportion of the electron density.

24. What volume of a 0.0200M calcium hydroxide is required to neutralize 35.00 mL of 0.0500M nitric acid

Natalka [10]

Answer:

THE VOLUME OF 0.200M CALCIUM HYDROXIDE NEEDED TO NEUTRALIZE 35 mL of 0.050 M NITRIC ACID IS 43.75 mL.

Explanation:

Using

Ca VA / Cb Vb = Na / Nb

Ca = 0.0500 M

Va = 35 mL

Cb = 0.0200 M

Vb = unknown

Na = 2

Nb = 1

Equation for the reaction:

Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 --------> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

So therefore, we make Vb the subject of the equation and solve for it

Vb = Ca Va Nb / Cb Na

Vb = 0.0500 * 35 * 1 / 0.0200 * 2

Vb = 1.75 / 0.04

Vb = 43.75 mL

The volume of 0.02M calcium hydroxide required to neutralize 35 mL of 0.05 M nitric acid is 43.75 mL
